the function unit of the kidney, or the structure in the kidney that does the work, is the nephron the leading cause of chronic kidney disease for adults in the united states: diabetes a nephron is made up a glomerulus and a tubule system which of the following is not a symptom of uremia elevated hematocrit Mrs. smith's dry weight is 62 kg. her pretreatment weight when she came in for treatment on monday was 67kg. the priming saline amount is 240ml, fluid from medication is 100 ml , and she is not allowed any fluids during treatment. what is the total amount of fluid weight to be removed during her treatment? 5,540ml based on Mrs. smith's total amount of fluids to be removed, what is the ultrafiltration rate per hour (ml/hr)for her 4-hour treatment? 1,385 ml/hr which of the following is a cause of hypotension during and after dialysis treatments? removing too much fluids the scale says a patient weights 70 kg. this the same as weighting how many points (lb)? 154 normal body ph is 7.35-7.45 one sigh and symptoms of fluids overload is hypertension abnormal levels of this electrolyte can cause cardiac arrhythmias and even death potassium water moves across a membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration by which principle osmosis waste products are removed during dialysis by which principle diffusion excess fluid is forced out of the blood and into the dialysis by which principle ultrafiltration the movement of the fluid from the tissue toward a higher concentration of sodium in the blood is a example of osmosis decreasing the patient's prescribed blood flow affects the rate of diffusion which of the following actions would increase diffusion during dialysis? using a bath that will provide a grater concentration gradient which of the following diffusion diffuses from the patients blood during dialysis? urea ultrafiltration is influenced by transmembrane pressure the most common complication in peritoneal dialysis is peritonitis the dextrose used in the dialysate for peritoneal dialysis can cause hyperglycemia if a patient develops an infection post transplant, the largest contributing factor would most likely be: immunosuppressive medication the most frequent cause of death in the first year post transplant is infection total cell volume (TCV) is a indirect measure of the performance of the dialyzer the TCV should be no less than 80% the manimum dwell time to achieve sterilization with the chemical renalin is 11 hours the reprocessed dialyzer is carefully rinsed prior to patient use to remove residual sterilant germicide rebound occurs due to inadequate dialyzer priming which organization set the standards and recommendations for dialyzer reprocessing? AAMI the blood path integrity is tested to eliminate the possibility of a blood leak. the drop in pressure should not exceed: 10 mmhg the purpose of using counter-current flow is to increase the rate of waste removal the total pressure that exists across the dialyzer membrane is called transmembrane pressure dialyser ph should be between 7.0 and 7.4 dialyzer that is too hot will cause hemolysis which of the following component in dialysate is used to correct metabolic acidosis? bicarbonate
